Facility

The LCI Sports Centre is the place for field sports all year round. It is a soccer, football, lacrosse or rugby field. It can be a cricket pitch or ultimate frizby battleground. The Sports Centre is unique in the community.

Artificial Turf
The Sports Centre turf is not quite like real grass but it is thicker and softer than other turf products on the market. While it is slightly harder than natural grass, our turf is significantly advanced from products available even five years ago. Some say it is even better than natural grass.

Improved sliding properties

Ultra-soft fibre

Resilient fibre that quickly springs back after being trodden on

What makes the turf different is new technology which uses cryogenic rubber and sand infill with implanted artificial blades of grass which provides a high quality playing surface. Older turfs are a form of less durable carpet which is not as safe for players and feels “artificial”.

Under The Dome
Each fall a high tech dome structure is erected over the playing surface and taken down in the spring. The air-supported structure is the latest engineering design manufactured by the Farley Group. The unique building system offers significant advantages over conventional buildings.

Size Matters
The entire 300’ x 200’ field is divided into three 100’ X 200’ playing surfaces. Book a single section or the entire field. The large unimpeded space means the playing surface is available all four seasons of the year. In the outdoor season, with the dome removed, the field is a regulation size CFL football field.

Onsite Staff and Facilities
NUSTADIA staff are onsite and ready to assist if needed. Washrooms and a change room are onsite.
